Dubious Frogfish

Let’s be honest, Frogfish aren’t pretty – they have a face that only a mother could love.

There are plenty of Frogfish in Sydney Harbour but fortunately they rarely dare to be seen out in public. They spend their days, hiding from view, in dark little holes.

The Frogfish in Sydney are known as Dubious Frogfish. We’ve no idea how they earned the ‘Dubious’ title but the ‘Frogfish’ part of the name is wholly appropriate. When anglers catch a Frogfish and drag this dubious character out in public… it complains loudly by croaking like frog.
